I predict a day of reckoning for them though- someone is going to have to explain to the judge/SEC, etc why they have $8bil in cash, not the 4.1 they claimed going into Ch11. Also it's going to be interesting how they justify ****ing away all the APA concessions on non-producing equipment like flat sceen tvs at all the gates, and granite countertops, etc. I hope they get what they deserve (but they probably won't).
You obviously have never been through this process, and never paid attention to what was going on to the other carriers while they were going through this. They'll have to do no explaining of the above, they'll get whatever scope relief they want. 2 1/2 times for me. Don't get your hopes up that alpa will do anything. The only thing they do is delay the company making changes. Management wins every time.
